School children and staff of Nkurakan Presby basic school in the Yilo Krobo municipality of the Eastern region today woke up to a staggering spectacle of a strange pot filled with blood on the school's compound.

The situation has stalled academic activities.

Parents who are stunned by the charm or juju have started calling the school to take their children home.

Meanwhile police in the area have arrested a man who claims to have planted the pot.

The suspect who is believed to be a septuagenarian is claiming ownership of the school's land.

Mr. Agbzor as he is affectionately called told the police, the school is illegally occupying the land bestowed on him by his grandfather.

He says he will fight until he gets what rightfully belongs to him.
